Missed the afternoon sunny gathering in Penfold Park thus seduced some of my friends to meet instead at Elements. Slightly disappointed that the appetizer was mooncake slices (commercial considerations, my companions reassured me) and not the guava I so looked forward to. The crab pincer was as excellent as I remembered it; crispy on the outside and fresh crabmeat on the inside. The black truffle egg white remained fragrant and smooth, it made me wonder if the intense flavour actually came from
Missed the afternoon sunny gathering in Penfold Park thus seduced some of my friends to meet instead at Elements.

The crab pincer was as excellent as I remembered it; crispy on the outside and fresh crabmeat on the inside. The black truffle egg white remained fragrant and smooth, it made me wonder if the intense flavour actually came from adding black truffle oil to the dish. I liked the strawberry pork (prepared like sweet and sour pork, though the sauce was based on strawberries), the pork was well marinated and I didn't find the sauce too sweet as my companions did. The fried rice was too salty; it's the third time I visited this place and this observation still held true - rice would be something I give a wide berth to should I eat here again. The vegetarian goose was so-so only, nothing to distinguish it from the usual one. The mini egg custard tart was very good and surpassed my expectations, this was baked upon ordering and the multi-layered lard crust was so rich and crispy that one could forego the calories and take several all at once.
The service was fairly good, though it was not very ideal to be seated at the back. The dinner cost less than $260 per head, which I find quite reasonable.
